We need to email this to everyone:
The Rules of the House of Representatives of the United States shall be the rules of the convention, except that the current authorized edition of Robert's Rules of Order: Newly Revised (“Robert's Rules of Order"), shall be the rules for committees and subcommittees of the convention, insofar as they are applicable and not inconsistent with the rules herein set forth; provided, however, that the convention may adopt its own rules concerning the reading of committee reports and resolutions.
That means this:
RRO: 25: Suspend Rules Interrupt: No, 2nd: Yes, Debate: No, Amend: No, Vote: 2/3.
Some states have rules that a majority of delegates can change the rules.
